Mr HB (note with donation) Saturday 31 December 2011
That PDF straightened my broken junk out. I appreciate it when something is done well and helpful. Please accept my thanks and $5.00 for a coffee or a beer. Thanks!
CPT JB Wednesday 28 December 2011
Chief, you are a cultural asset! I've worked IT customer service for years, and your simple, user-friendly work is a model for others to follow. You save the DoD thousands of man hours that would otherwise be wasted trying to figure this all out on our own and/or traveling back to base to use a CAC reader. You are a key for us unlocking the "promise of IT", as President Obama put it. Keep up the great work and train replacements! PS: have someone get the word out about this site. I only found out about it by chance. Maybe an ad on the AKO front page would do the trick.
Post on YouTube channel Tuesday 27 December 2011
Chief I just want to say you are the man, I've been trying to install my CAC onto my home computer for a very long time and looking at your video certainly helped out a lot and saved me a lot of headache. Once again thank you very much.
WOC KD Saturday 24 December 2011
I wanted to write to tell you thank you for your website. I shared the URL on my Facebook with other Soldiers fresh out of BCT. Thanks to my dad, a retired Engineer with 27 years of service, I have access to certain professional Soldier items, like a CAC reader (GemPC- works perfectly), that others might not know exist. I also posted the link on my class's WONET page just in case someone finds it useful. It's amazing how much technology the Army could utilize. I have a tablet (Motorola Xoom- outdated already) and it would be great to have a reader built in and able to use for quick, even real-time, information. Maybe the HALO game Soldier is closer than we think!
MAJ DB Friday 23 December 2011
Thanks!!!!! Your website was very user friendly for a computer rock like me!
LTC GE Monday 19 December 2011
I just wanted to say that I followed your very clear
instructions carefully and for the first time have been able to install all
items without any hassles. Thanks for the great service you are providing.
Keep up the good work.
2 DL (USAF) Sunday 18 December 2011
Thank you for all of your help! Your website, PDF files and quick email responses are far beyond impressive. I can't thank you enough.
Mr JW (note with a donation) Sunday 18 December 2011
Hi Chief Danberry, Love your website and the principle of no banners or flashing webpage ads, making the site as clean as possible. Keep up the great work! Your efforts are truly appreciated!
ITC ML (Navy) Monday 12 December 2011
Once again your site and this time a
thread helped me with a lingering CAC issue I was having with my
personal laptop. It started when I had to get my new ID card a few
months ago in September. I could access pretty much all sites except
our CMS site (for Sailor detailing). Don't need to get in there too
often so put it on the back burner. So today I decided to find out
what was going on. After doing some research discovered it had to do
with needing the latest update for
ActivClient at your site. Funny thing was, I went out to our
download page for the software and grabbed the (supposed) latest software
but it wound up being the same old software. Needless to say, the
update resolved the problem I was having with ActivClient that was
preventing me from hitting the CMSID site.
CR (Contractor) Sunday 11 December 2011
Thank you for responding so quickly! I really appreciate your assistance. After two days trying to install certificates, card reader software and now the client, email is running.
1SG MJ Tuesday 6 December 2011
Sir, I wanted to say thank you! Spent more time with this process last night - and am now fully functional! couldn't have done it without this website - Thanks again!
1SG OA Tuesday 6 December 2011
Thanks again for all your help, and it's definitely a good thing what you and your team are doing for the service members with your site. I have been referring to the site back in the days when I used Windows. Now that I am on Mac, it has definitely been a source of invaluable information and help using CAC with Mac.
CDR TS (Navy) Monday 5 December 2011
Just wanted to say thank you for your outstanding site and the service you
provide. I've been having trouble getting my CAC to work ever since I
purchased a Mac, and the NMCI helpdesk has been useless. They go so
far as to say that they don't support Apple and reference users to your web
site.
O2 JA USAF Sunday 4 December 2011
Thank you very much for a great website; I have been able to connect to the Air Force's OWA page
tmfarg on YouTube Thursday 1 December 2011
Great video! I can now get into NROWS on Firefox! Keep up the good work!
crankymrman on YouTube Wednesday 30 November 2011
Thank you I can finally use my CAC again
SFC CJ Tuesday 29 November 2011
Hello Chief -- Thanks so much for your tireless efforts with keeping the militarycac.com website up to date and continually improving on it. You are an invaluable aid for military IT professionals such as myself everywhere and I cannot thank you enough for all you do. Whenever I am dealing with any kind of CAC or CAC-related issue, I tell everyone to check your site first. It sets the standard far above and beyond for "getting it right".
MAJ NR Tuesday 29 November 2011
I just wanted to express thanks for putting up such a great site. It
has helped me numerous times.
MSgt MR (USAF) Thursday 17 November 2011
Thanks so much for your site and the time you devote to it so those of us who aren’t as tech savvy have a fighting chance….lol.
Maj RS Monday 14 November 2011
After uninstalling IE 9 64 bit from my Win 7 PC, I was able to logon to the Air Force Portal using IE8. Thanks!
MAJ JW Monday 14 November 2011
Chief: Just wanted to thank you the awesome web site.
Tartanplad on YouTube Saturday 12 November 2011
You are a lifesaver! You make complicated problems easy to accomplish! Thank you!
CPT SW Thursday 10 November 2011
I'm glad that I had to call you for assistance. I really enjoyed our
brief (hahaha -extended help desk support call) conversation and your school
bus driver "patience." Otherwise I might still be driving all over
town to go to the library for CAC access.
nightslayer187 via YouTube Saturday 29 October 2011
Thank you so much! I've been trying for three months to get into my AKO account and you just helped me so much! Thanks a lot!
LtCol NR - USAF Tuesday 25 October 2011
I just wanted to sent a quick note of thanks. I was struggling with getting my CAC to work with my new laptop, and your site really helped me. (I think the key was removing some of the certificates.)
MSG MH Saturday 22 October 2011
Chief, I wanted to thank you again for your help, I really appreciate it! I will definitely pass your website around in my unit.
MAJ OI Wednesday 19 October 2011
You guys deserve the highest award possible for what you have done on behalf of a broken Army. If we could get one Soldier in every office to work as hard as you have on getting the word out regarding how to use the CAC we would have world peace.
Mr RS Tuesday 18 October 2011
Chief Danberry,
SSgt KL Tuesday 18 October 2011
I just want to say thanks for a great site! I've been dragging my feet on installing a CAC reader on my personal laptop, but my supervisor sent me an email yesterday saying that I had to do it if I wanted to get paid for a set of orders I had outstanding, so I did it. It took a little bit of reading on my part, but the instructions were simple and went step by step, which is something this computer "idiot" needed. :)
MAJ MS Friday 14 October 2011
CW3 Danberry!
Big fan of your website and all the work you do.
I direct
CPT JA Thursday 13 October 2011
CW3 Danberry, I'm no "techy" whatsoever, but you made it easy to do &
get it completed.
Too bad
everything in the military is not done as well as your site! Thanks again for helping me and everybody else out for
that matter.
MSgt MB (USAF) Wednesday 12 October 2011
THANK YOU for your site, it is simple to understand and find the solution to problems.
Mr JP Wednesday 12 October 2011
Chief, awesome work! I just wanted to inform you what another user already told you. When enabling the CAC Reader in FFox 7.01 Security Devices, I had to Browse to the location of ActivClient x64 .dll and click 'OK', then I had to remove the patch information from the textbox leaving only the driver filename, and it worked perfectly.
JH Saturday 8 October 2011
I appreciate your "off duty" service to the men and women of the DoD, as well as your on duty service!
CPT MP Thursday 6 October 2011
Thank you. Seems like you put a great deal of time and effort in helping with AKO and CAC. Your doing a great job and appreciate your hard work.
LTC PS Wednesday 5 October 2011
Chief, I am emailing you to say, Thank You. Your PDF instructions were wonderful and I can now access AKO from my PC with my CAC and reader. Thank you for taking the time to patiently explain what I needed to do to configure my computer for access.
CMSgt JH (USAF) Saturday 1 October 2011
You da bomb Chief!
Thanks for yesterday’s support you provided. I wanted to see if I could get the CAC reader (SCR 243) on
my laptop working.
From the
awesome steps you walked me through last night on my desktop, I was able to
successfully, and finally, get it to work after years of inactivity. This site should be posted everywhere!
And it will be where I work!
I know you are a busy person, but wanted (again) to
express my sincere appreciation for your support.
I found it very refreshing a "person" is on the other end of the
phone with a genuine interest in the caller.
I started my retirement process from home yesterday.
Without your help in getting my card readers and the software
working, I would be stuck at work accomplishing my retirement. As I said, I will inform as many as I can of your website.
LT JS Sunday 25 September 2011 Thank you! As a reservist, I've
found your militarycac.com website to
be incredibly helpful. It seems like my CAC card reader / certificates
/ web browser craps out about once a month or so. I've been going to
your website every time it's happened and I've always been back in business
in a matter of minutes. Thank you for your service to our troops.
IT1 DM (USN) Thursday 22 September 2011
Thanks So Much Sir. You Rock! I cannot believe my eyes.
CW2 BR Tuesday 3 September 2011
I'll be on the lookout for your website updates. Thanks again for all you do for us in your spare time. Cheers from S. Korea!
SGT TH Tuesday 3 September 2011
just wanted to say thank you for taking the time to reply
to my question. was able to read though and
fix the issue thank you for your time
SGT BM Tuesday 6 September 2011
Thanks for the info. I uninstalled and reinstalled the
ActivClient software and am now good to go! I got so much from your
site. Thanks for all you do to help computer illiterate people like me. You
are AWESOME!!!
SGT CC Sunday 4 September 2011
I want to thank you for creating a site that assist Mac users. I don't know the clueless expert the military to advise them on online data delivery, but leaving out soldiers that use Mac was a big mistake. Your site has helped me tremendously.
Mr DK Tuesday 30 August 2011
You are the man - thanks for keeping things up to date with Lion. Definitely prefer filing my DTS travel vouchers from home with my iMac!
Comment on YouTube page Friday 26 August 2011
Thank you for this video! I have not been able to access AKO with my
CAC for a while since the IE 9 update until now. Thanks again and keep up
the great work!
ET1 WR (Navy) Thursday 25 August 2011 Awesome!
Easy to follow, and worked the first time. I thank you for you help!
Comment on YouTube page Wednesday 24 August 2011
Chief, thanks for this video, I had problems with signing a Lotus form, this video and others got it working
LTC PM Tuesday 23 August 2011
Chief, I just want to give you some positive feedback for your excellent CAC site. Every issue / error I encountered was addressed and resolved. Thank you for your dedicated service to helping service members maintain AKO connection while using their personal computer. If you haven't received an award for all you've done... I for one hereby recommend you for one. Thanks again.
LTC SC Monday 22 August 2011
You should get a metal for your service brother!
Ms TM Tuesday 16 August 2011
I've been pulling my hair out because my CAC was not working when I logged into the JPAS site. It worked when I logged in under another domain, but not on my default domain. My IT people tried everything they could and eventually just created a new blank profile. That worked, with much frustration over having to re-populate the new profile with all my data, but only for a couple of days, then I was having the same problem all over again. I found your website and looked through everything and finally decided to try the instructions for "Making AKO work with Internet Explorer." I went through the instructions step by step. When it came to the part where you are instructed to try to log on, I did and it didn't work. So, I continued on as the instructions said. When I completed ALL of the instructions and tried it again, it worked. So far it's still working, but I have my suspicions that this process may be something I end up having to repeat, often. Anyway, I wanted to thank you for your site and the help it was to me, and I'm sure many others.
Maj TH USAF Tuesday 16 August 2011
After receiving a new CAC (the one without the SSN), my CAC reader did not work (Card Reader Not Detected). I performed many iterations of uninstall/reinstall, updates, etc but found no remedy. I called Mike Danberry, he picked up right away, he patiently walked me through a VERY complex process of editing my registry, and presto, I am back in business!! It's people like Mike who remind us that there are genuinely good people who are willing to help others in need. Thank you Mike!!!
Mr EK Monday 15 August 2011 Your website discussion and instructions were BY FAR the
most helpful of any we have come across.
2LT MP Friday 12 August 2011
Just wanted to say thanks for the support. I have average computer skills and was able to install my CAC reader as well as Lotus Forms and Approve It. Your site is easy to follow and I will recommend it for all my troops.
SPC TB Thursday 11 August 2011
Thanks a million for always coming to my aid. It is working now. Thank you
Ms KW Thursday 11 August 2011
Militarycac.com is a very helpful site
Maj WS (Air National Guard) Monday 8 August 2011
I was able to find all the answers I needed. Thanks again for your outstanding page and your quick response. You provide a better service, on your own time, than the military does.
Mr JS Monday 8 August 2011
Thank you so much for your time and input on this and for
the work and service you provide with this site!
BM2 MJ (father of a Soldier) Thursday 4 August 2011
My thanks for a terrific and informative site! I was able to use
MilitaryCAC.com to get myself up and running on both my PCs and my Macs, and
with little fuss. Frankly, I don't know that I'd have been able to get
it done in even half the time without your assistance.
CW3 LS Wednesday 3 August 2011
Hey Michael just want to give you a quick shout and say
thanks for your work on MilitaryCAC.com.
Great resource!
WO1 BB Monday 1 August 2011
Copying the libeay32.dll fixed my problem. Thanks for the help. This site is a life saver
Ms CT Sunday 31 July 2011
Dear Chief Danberry, Thank you so much for your help in resolving the IE9 certificate problem. Once the DoD root file was downloaded, I was able to access the military sites I needed (Outlook Web Access, DPS). I will keep your web address close by, and share it with my civilian colleagues when I return to RAF Lakenheath. I have already forwarded your site details to our regional IT folks, who originally could only suggest a reinstall of IE8. Luckily, I pursued the matter further, and discovered your amazing site. Would like to express my appreciate with a little donation toward the cause. Thanks again for your invaluable assistance
MAJ VC Saturday 30 July 2011
You have the best web site and resource web site for these kinds of issues I have ever seen. Leave it to a Chief Warrant Officer to get things done I always say.
CPT DP Saturday 30 July 2011
I am a SC Officer, and was working
for the top end signal command in
Afghanistan.
I introduced your site to my help desk team,
and it proved to be very useful, and I am so glad that your solutions worked
for our COL's and LTC's email and CAC issues.
The regular Army has virtually no resources for desktop support.
Mr JE Saturday 30 July 2011
Thanks for getting back to me so soon. You must be a very busy guy. You do
an absolute fantastic job helping everyone. I do not see how you can
CPT JS Friday 29 July 2011
Wow, after another try and a full night sleep I resolved the issue in just a few seconds. Thanks for your website and the great service that you provide! I don't know how I'd ever have a working personal CAC reader without it (and therefore severely limited in the amount of work I can get done "off duty"). Thanks again for the service you provide --
incredibly valuable. In fact, when we issued out our CAC readers I had
a screenshot of your site in a PowerPoint so that my company would know
where to go to successfully navigate the chaos. Great job, thank you!
CSM PB Friday 29 July 2011
Thanks for all of your help chief!
You epitomize the meaning of helping your fellow Warriors.
LTC AH Friday 29 July 2011
You and your site do an excellent job
Posting on YouTube page Thursday 28 July 22011
Sir, thanks a lot! I was ripping my hair out trying to
access our SharePoint site here at RDECOM (Aberdeen MD).
LTC GW Wednesday 27 July 2011
Just read your militarycac.com
tutorial on making AKO work with IE 9. Thanks for writing that. I spent
a couple hours researching the problem and found nothing that worked until I
saw your presentation.
Capt BH (USMC) Wednesday 27 July 2011
Thanks again for all the work you guys do to keep the site up to date and
all the troubleshooting work you do. It's great to be able to use my Mac to
do the military things I need to do.
Mr RR Wednesday 27 July 2011
Thank you very much for the "Making AKO and/or other DoD websites work with
Internet Explorer" PDF. I am not a computer guy and found your
instructions clear and precise. Will pass on this info to my friends
who years ago gave up on using the CAC reader at the house. Very much
appreciated.
SFC TS Wednesday 27 July 2011
Great service you offer, thanks much. For someone who does this on
separate time your come back was fast.
CW2 CH Wednesday 27 July 2011
I just want to personally thank you for your hard work
regarding
1LT BM Tuesday 26 July 2011
I just wanted to say thank you for the site. I use your site everyday for problems and provide this link to many people. This is the only site that provides assistance and I really appreciate all the hard work that it takes to maintain and the knowledge and links to help people you do not know. Thank you.
Mr PC Monday 25 July 2011
MilitaryCAC.com is hands down the single best source of joint service advice on installing CAC readers on personally owned computers. Thanks Chief!
Mr JC Monday 25 July 2011
Chief,
CW4 PF Sunday 24 July 2011 I consider myself somewhat of a “super geek” but CAC and
AKO related problems drive me to drink sometimes. Thanks for all you
have done to un-muddy the waters.
1st Lt BD (Air Force) Saturday 23 July 2011
Just wanted to thank you guys for making it so easy to
set up my CAC on my Mac. Thanks!
CW2 LL Saturday 23 July 2011
Awesome job on the FREE fix for using the CAC on Lion. Worked like a charm, per your website instructions.
CPT BB Thursday 21 July 2011
Michael, militarycac.com is a great resource. Thanks so much!
Mr CD Thursday 21 July 2011
Love the site, very, very helpful!!
MAJ CM Wednesday 20 July 2011
Mr. Danberry, if no one has told you lately, your efforts on this website are outstanding. You have solved so many problems for me as of lately that I’m compelled to send you a gratuitous message with a hardy virtual slap on the back. Keep up your outstanding service to hundreds of thousands of service members and DoD Civilians around the world.
MSG TD Tuesday 19 July 2011
I can't tell you how many times I refer our folks to your
site for help with our government systems and people's personal ones as
well. Thank you for your hard work!
Mr BG Tuesday 28 June 2011
Thank you for preparing this presentation. It was driving me crazy trying to get the CAC and AKO to work together.
MSG DC (via LinkedIn) Sunday 28 June 2011
Chief Danberry has been an incredible resource with his information and assistance in the CAC software applications. I have found him to be a dedicated individual willing to go the extra step with Soldiers. Chief Danberry has proven on many occasions his professionalism and ability to operate in difficult and challenges areas.
CPT MC Wednesday 22 June 2011
I am not very computer savvy, but this website made
installing a CAC reader very easy!
I will definitely recommend it to my fellow soldiers!
Thank you so much!!!
Mr AH Sunday 19 June 2011
Thank you for posting the instructions on installing
DoD Certificates. Worked like a charm, after I went through the
video and read all the links a few times.
Mr JH Tuesday 14 June 2011
Thanks for the super fast response. Also wanted to send you my personal thanks for all the help your site has been in solving all the weird issues that seem to crop up.
LTC GS Monday 13 June 2011
CW3....your should get an MSM for this site!!!!!!!
After trying several "ideas from others" I found your site and was
able to access AKO at home in 1 minute.
Thanks again!
SGT FJ Saturday 11 June 2011
Thank you so much for your assistance.
Everything that you told me in the
PDF worked great and everything is working properly now.
AD1 OC (Navy) 7 June 2011
Chief Danberry, Oh man you're truly a genius! I've been working on being
able to correct a
file association (#7) on my computer for months of how to access NKO.
Now I can do my online courses instead of going to my work center on
weekends. Through this it gives me flexibility and be with my family.
CDR TH (Navy) 7 June 2011
Thanks for the quick reply.
I'll see what I can find to upgrade my Mac (Tiger).
Great site!! Great Service!!
SFC KA Friday 3 June 2011
I felt compelled to write and tell you how stress free
you made this task for me. I am about as computer illiterate as they
come, and yet, with your step by step instructions it took me less than 4
hrs to complete on both my desktop and laptop. That may seem like an
eternity to you but believe me, for ME, it was nothing short of a life
altering event. Thanks for sharing your technical expertise with those of us
that are lacking. Scouts Out, Sir!
SMSgt SM Thursday 2 June 2011
This website is the only stop any military member needs to know if they are having concerns with their home CAC readers!
Mr OE Thursday 2 June 2011
Your site is great and I am grateful the world still has people like yourself that shares great information.
LT JR (Navy) Tuesday 31 May 2011
Thank you again for your help!!!
1LT BD Monday 30 May 2011
Thank you very much for all of your help. You were able
to teach my S6 guys a few things about OWA. I'm not sure if you maintain the
site for the military or just for yourself, but either way you do a great
job.
SPC JS Saturday 28 May 2011
I just want to say thank you for all your help. I appreciate it very much

found your
PowerPoint slides. I did exactly what you laid out, and now it works.
Thank you SO very much.

Thank you Chief, you have no clue how many hours you saved me. Thanks a mil! Seriously, thank you, not to test DCO with Firefox. Wish I could buy you a beer.
CW2 JM Friday 13 May 2011
Hey Mike, Just so you know, I had an LTC who couldn't digitally sign OERs. With the help of your website, I squeaked out a solution within an acceptable timeframe, thanks.
COL JS Thursday 12 May 2011 I bought the IOGear 201 card reader at the PX and
followed your instructions for my Mac (Snow
Leopard). It worked exactly right the first time, and I can now
get to my DISA mail through OWA with no issues. 
Mr JA Wednesday 11 May 2011
Your PDF on fixing CAC issues is awesome...fixed a problem with my Windows 7 computer (would recognize my CAC, but would not let me in)...just a note to say, "Thanks!"
SGT CL Tuesday 10 May 2011
I can now log in with your talented PDF slides. Sir, I think you need to open your own business if you haven't done so already. You have a lot of talents and knowledge which helped me just by following the slides by one simple try. Again Sir, I thank you.
Ms SD Wednesday 4 May 2011
I had just about given up hope on getting AKO and CAC
access to work for me, then I found your website.
I am not sure which tweak worked, but, without your path to
troubleshooting I would have given up.
Thank for for your service.
OC TD Friday 29 April 2011
The information at this website has been very helpful and has solved every problem I've run into. You're doing a great service!
LTC WH Wednesday 27 April 2011
Chief: Between your instructions on MilitaryCAC.com and Lotus and ApproveIt install pages, I apparently have stumbled into resolving my problem. I don't want my head to swell too much, but this is probably the biggest computer success I have accomplished in a long time.
Mr LL Wednesday 27 April 2011
CW3 Danberry, thank you so much for this site. I have found it a great resource. I do not need to rehash tutorials, step by step, but can instead use your site as an awesome reference. It can be quite an ordeal, at times, to troubleshoot OWA issues, but with all of the FAQs you have on this site, one can make a short order of troubleshooting the issue. Thanks so much.
Mr MC Thursday 21 April 2011
Chief, this is the best site for CAC information that I
have ever found.
I send all of
my users here for the quick fixes or questions that I can't answer as the S6
OIC.
Your site has saved my 4
points of contact so often.
Thanks
CPT CB Wednesday 20 April 2011
Hey Chief: Just wanted to drop a note saying a sincere thank you for maintaining this site and providing clear guidance and instructions. It is far above any of the resources available on AKO, and I can't even count the number of times I've used it. So, again, Thanks!
Mr BW Tuesday19 April 2011 I did a quick g\Google search on how to set up AKO
email on outlook and was directed to this PDF:
http://www.militarycac.com/files/AKO_on_Outlook_2010.pdf. It was
so easy to make everything work, the first time. Thanks for your
expertise Chief, I and many others appreciate all you do.
LCDR KB (Navy) Tuesday 19 April 2011 My deep appreciation for your handout on enabling home CAC readers. I was having serious problems and as I will be deploying to Erbil, Iraq in my “day job” this summer I was starting to worry. It works just fine now thanks to your easy, step-by-step instructions. I have become a big advocate of your website! Thanks, you’re a great American. My best wishes
to you in all your endeavors.
anonymous post on YouTube channel Tuesday 19 April 2011
Chief, thanks, without this step by step tutorial is like dropping Ray Charles on a land navigation course at night by himself. Thank you
COL SR Sunday 17 April 2011
Phenomenal assistance from Chief Danberry!
He took time out of his evenings and weekends to fix my CAC problems.
Chief Danberry is supremely competent and incredibly professional.
I am so pleased to see this kind of support from the IT side of the
house.
Amazing!!
MM (via CAC page on Facebook) Sunday 17 April 2011
Wow, I wish I would have done this on my home computer years ago. I am on Terminal Leave and needed your help to get a CAC reader on my home computer to finish an NCOER. Your website is well designed and easy to follow! Great work!
CPL TD (USMC) Wednesday 13 April 2011
Just wanted to say awesome site. I'm not a computer guy, but with your videos i got all of em done within a few hours. You make it very easy!
MSG GS Sunday 10 April 2011 Chief, Thanks for the CAC windows 7 fixes you posted on AKO. That is the most useful thing I found. The AGM guys had nothing, found yours just looking to see if there was an update in the CAC resource center. I will advise my G6 people that it exists as I am sure others could use the info. THANKS again
SGT DL Friday 8 April 2011
Chief,
CW4 DM Wednesday 6 April 2011
Thanks for the quick response. You were right on the money with your diagnosis. I went to the website you recommended and bought the PKard software. My Oberthur 5.5 CAC now works with AKO on my Mac, so I am very pleased with it.

Great web site for configuring my MAC with the SCR-3310.
LS2 AD (US Navy) Friday 18 March 2011
I have been trying to get my CAC reader to work at home
for the past 6 months. I have called NMCI several times, switched from
Windows Vista x64 to Windows 7 x64, been to several help sites, spoke with
several people who had the same problem, and could not find a solution until
I called Chief Danberry. I went through all his instructions, and
there were a lot of steps that no one else had given me until I read them on
www.militarycac.com. I knew I
was close but still could not logon with my CAC so I decided to call.
We spent less then 30 minutes on the phone. A few steps, a few
restarts, and a few more steps, and my CAC finally worked.
Chief has been a tremendous help. I am glad he's willing to
take time in helping others.

Just wanted to thank you for so many answers to the endless questions and problems that you resolve. I am very grateful as are the countless users I have kept functional because of your help.
CPT PB Wednesday 16 March 2011
You deserve an MSM for this web site. I never would have been able to install my CAC reader without it. Your site is incredible. Way above and beyond...
SGT TV Wednesday 09 March 2011 I wanted to give you a compliment on your straight
forward video presentation on how to download the CAC card reader, Lotus
Form Viewer and Approve It software. I had just replaced my home
Desktop recently. I never gave it a thought that the ARMY had changed
software for forms. I had just received an NCOER form and could not
open it. When I called the Unit no one knew what I was referring too, since
these items are already loaded on their machines.
MAJ DE (Air National Guard) Wednesday 09 March 2011
I'm sure you get this everyday - but WOW was your site
helpful to me.
Mr BR (USAF) Wednesday 09 March 2011
Chief, thank you for your very informative site. I've used it many times getting my CAC reader working on OS X
Mr HH Tuesday 08 March 2011
Thanks and you bet, Greatest HELP Site Ever!
Mr JW Saturday 05 March 2011
I am sure you hear this all the time sir, but you have a great site. I
work for Ciber and run one of the DLS sites.
Your site has helped many many many Soldiers with their issues and
has made my knowledge about CAC issues even better... big fan... thanks for
what you do sir. BTW, do you have signs we can
post on our wall for sSoldiers? or is it ok for us to do so?
I show almost ever Soldier your site that has any CAC problem, even
after I have solved it for them.
MAJ JS Wednesday 02 March 2011
You are providing an excellent resource to the ever-changing AKO world; especially for home users like me
SPC JP Wednesday 02 March 2011
I just want to thank you for putting this site up. I'm an M-Day soldier in the WVARNG and we were issued CAC Readers this past weekend at drill. Without your help I would still be a monkey holding a football, so to speak
LTC MS Tuesday 01 March 2011
Just had to say you're awesome Chief. This helped fix yet another issue. Thanks for this outstanding resource.
SFC SG Tuesday 01 March 2011
Chief, Keep up the great work and thanks again!
LTC RV Monday 28 February 2011
Tremendous site! I have had nothing but trouble with the home CAC reader. The support from computer systems has not been very helpful. In trying to make everything work the first time I think my computer picked up some malware or programs that clashed with one another. My only choice was to re-install Windows XP and totally wipe the system clean. This got rid of all of the bad stuff, but it also disabled drivers, etc. With your instructions I was able to restore my system and get the CAC to work perfectly. Your site should be listed as a resource with every computer systems office. Thanks for the great work.
CW4R BH Monday 28 February 2011
Michael - awesome site! I can't tell you how helpful it
has been in setting up many CAC readers. You truly symbolize the
"Quiet Professional." Excellent resource!
MAJ EH Tuesday 22 February 2011 I received an error referencing the “Null pointer”. I
Googled, and hit your page with your solutions. The first cure didn’t solve,
but the second worked great!
ABH 1(AW) JM (Navy) Sunday 20 February 2011
CW3 Danberry, you are my hero, yes I have been working this through ever since we chatted last and after uninstalling ActivClient 6.2, deleting cookies and re-installing the government certs that really worked awesome. Very awesome service. Next drill weekend I will be delivering a presentation and printing some of your flyers. Your service is better than anything out there in my book. Thank you, thank you. It all worked awesome....Thanks.. I even got my OWA working too and this has been all all time first, never could get that working in 6 years time.
CW2 SG Sunday 20 February 2011
Just wanted you to know your site is awesome. I just used it to solve several CAC issues for our BDE laptops. Hope they are paying you well for this job. Your site is a life saver.
MSG RS Saturday 19 February 2011
Chief...
After
one week of trying to figure out how to install CAC. You saved the day with
a personal phone call. I had been trying for 5 days to install CAC but kept
getting error messages. I'm glad your site exists for those who need
assistance, it's like having my own IMO at home thanks to you. Great job and
Thanks again.
1LT JB Saturday 12 February 2011
Thank you for the incredible site!
1LT DL Tuesday 8 February 2011
Chief, I just wanted to say your guide helped me install
my cac card so I can take care of business while I'm TDY. It was so easy and
your process was painless.
I
just wanted to thank you for providing this information.
It was the easiest of all the "step by steps" out there.
ITC DS (Navy) Monday 7 February
I just wanted to say thanks...your site really rocks!
SGT AB Friday 4 February 2011
Sir--thanks for creating this page, it is a wonderful resource! I've used it to set up my home and work computer in under 10 minutes each. I really appreciate the guidance.
Mr TW Thursday 3 February 2011
Mike, Thanks for your extremely informative posting on AKO
regarding CAC card issues with Internet Explorer. You are a life
saver. Greatly appreciate the time and effort you took to help
the masses.
Mr CZ Monday 31 January 2011
This is just a big Thank You for your help and information. I've used your
site often. It's the only one of its kind. You have made my job with my
organization 100x easier, which in turn helps MANY DoD Civilians do their
jobs to support Soldiers and their Families. Again, many thanks!
CPT AG Sunday 30 January 2011
Thanks Chief, that was dead reckoning and straight on point!!! problem solved
MSgt PH (Air Force) Saturday 29 January 2011
Your website is THE go-to resource; it is light-years ahead of our enterprise engineers.
OS2 AG (Navy) Thursday 27 January 2011
This is an awesome site, and an awesome person. Very helpful and knowledgeable. The people that created a CAC reader probably can not fix as many problems as you can. You're awesome Sir.
SSG JM Tuesday 25 January 2011
Thanks for everything you do. I can't imagine how bad things would get without your site.
MAJ JH Tuesday 25 January 2011
I found your Adding AKO directory to Outlook 2010. It worked great, and is much appreciated
Mr WW Sunday 16 January 2011 The DoD Certificates linked on your site install faster and easier for non-technically inclined users. We receive a multitude of calls involving the installation of DoD Certificates, literally on a 24/7 basis. Manually installing the certificates from http://dodpki.c3pki.chamb.disa.mil/rootca.html takes around 16-18mins per call. Using your link to install the certificates is running about 2mins, most of the time talking the people through the prompts. The time savings is incredible.
Thank you
for the website. I have been informing Army CAC users of the site you
setup for home CAC access of AKO.
LTC MC Sunday 16 January 2011
Yet another thing /arena the Army fails to resource and someone like you has to fill in the gap out of pocket.
Mr RN Saturday 15 January 2011
Just wanted to comment on the great job you are doing for the betterment of mankind on your own time. Site has been a help to me already.
Dr KP (DoD contractor) Tuesday 11 January 2011
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! I was able to install and use my CAC on Windows 7 because of you! If you are ever in FL look me up because I owe you!
YNC SS (Navy) Tuesday 11 January 2011
Chief,
MAJ LC Tuesday 11 January 2011
Chief - thanks for a valuable and free service. You got me set up and I'm located overseas in an area with no military installations. Keep up the good work.
LTJG NM (Navy) Tuesday 11 January 2011
Good videos "Chief Geek"
CPT TS Monday 10 January 2011 I just wanted to let you know that was a nice article
on you in the Army Times. I have used your website a million times and even
recommend it to others who need help with CAC issues, both at home and work.
Also, I follow the 53 Listserv, so I am familiar with you from there.
SSgt DM (USMC) Saturday 8 January 2011
I greatly appreciate your simple yet comprehensive walk-through for using my CAC reader on my MAC. I sought out many sites before coming across yours and appreciate your thorough write-up on this topic. Thank you and keep up the great work.
LTC DG Thursday 6 January 2011
Many many thanks Chief. UR D'Man! I was very frustrated last night.
MSG FG Wednesday 5 January 2011 Keep up the great work you are doing on this site. It
is providing a great service to the DoD community.
